An old grindstone, used for sharpening tools, is a solid cylindrical wheel

 

An old grindstone, used for sharpening tools, is a solid cylindrical wheel that can rotate about its central axle with negligible friction. The radius of the wheel is 0.330 m. A constant tangential force of 200 N applied to its edge causes the wheel to have an angular acceleration of 0.852 rad/s. (a) What is the moment of inertia of the wheel (in kg - m)? kg-m (b) What is the mass (in kg) of the wheel? kg (c) The wheel starts from rest and the tangential force remains constant over a time period of 5.50 s. What is the angular speed (in rad/s) of the wheel at the end of this time period? rad/s
